Chapter 4 - Enter Selena Silverfin

Alex could sense there was a rising tension growing in the room so he decided to do something about it. He was not going to be so easily claimed by this dragon, if she wanted him she would have to work for it. 

With all the negative facial emotion he could muster in a stare he looked Ella back in the eye and said, "My name is Alexander Kassem. I know next to nothing about your customs yet it seems like you want me to be a… partner of sorts? Well here is the deal, spitfire, I just want to live in peace and romance is the farthest on my agenda as of now. I have aspirations of my own and if you can't help me with that you are no better than the bimbo's of my world."

Ella removed her claw from under his chin as she flinched at the word bimbo as she was unsure if that was a good word or not. She gritted her teeth in agitation as he continued to talk.

"So, if you are not going to comply with my wishes and just be another bimbo just looking for pleasure…" Alex said as he crossed his arms, "then just do me the favor of leaving and never showing yourself to me again."

Ella was silent as a million thoughts ran through her head. Luna took this as an invite to introduce herself and walked over to Alex.

Luna took a knee in front of Alex and bowed her head as she said, "I am known as Luna Ashibanu, and it would be an honor to work alongside a high ranking male such as you."

Alex looked at Luna and then at Chika. The werecat smiled and put a hand over her heart as she bowed at the waist, "My name is Chika Meowskie and it would be an honor to teach you many things young master as I am the best scholar this side west of the Skyla river."

Ryukia was somewhat happy to see that at least two of the women she chose to take care of the clans newest high ranking male member were at least kind and smart enough to consider his feelings in all this and not just think of themselves like her niece Ella. Ryukia knew that Ella was way too irresponsible for this task, so she had to quickly think of a new third female to take her place. Suddenly a small red skinned orc child wandered into their room as she was chasing a ball that had somehow gotten away from her. The ball rolled over to Alex's feet and the child stopped in her tracks and looked up at Alex in awe.

Alex kneeled down and picked up the ball and handed it over to the little orc girl with a kind smile on his face, "It seems your ball nearly got away from you, huh?"

The little orc girl gave a big toothy smile as she took back the ball from Alex.

"Juda! Juda, where have you run off to now little one?!" came a new female voice.

Alex looked from the door to the little orc girl and asked her, "Is your name Juda?"

she smiled as she nodded her head and Alex then offered her his hand as he led her to the door to the room. Out in the hallway a woman with long bright blue hair, webbed ears and hands, and was in a wheelchair was roaming the halls in search of the little orc child.

"Juda, this isn't funny, you know you shouldn't skip class. Now please come out." the woman called out as she moved her wheelchair up and down the hall.

Alex walked with little Juda over to this woman and found out that she was a mermaid since she had a blueish-purple tailfin instead of feet. She wore a deep purple frilly dress and had emerald green eyes. Juda spotted her and ran up to her with a big smile on her face.

"Oh my! Juda! Where have you been?" when the mermaid saw Alex she blushed and then said, "W-who is this young male with you?"

"Male is good." said Juda in typical Orc fashion, "Gave Juda ball back. Help Juda find Teacher."

The mermaid looked up at Alex and said with a slight blush on her face, "Well then, I guess I should thank you for returning my student…"

"My name is Alexander Kassem, and I am new to this world entirely." Alex said as he rubbed the back of his neck nervously, "I had no clue that there were actual schools here in this world."

"My name is Selena Silverfin and it's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Kassem." said the mermaid teacher with a soft smile.

Ryukia peeked her head out to see Alex talking to Selena and a smile bloomed on the young Queen's face as an idea formed in her head. Ryukia knew Selena fairly well and would say that the young mermaid is very mild in nature and very mature for her age. Plus it would seem that Alex had taken a liking to the mermaid as it was apparent from the color on his cheeks when he talked to her. That was when Ryukia made up her mind about Selena being the head host for Alexander in his new life here in Avalon.
